A humorous Barnard Bulletin piece urges readers to support charity by donating to a “box” and buying a brick. It lampoons self indulgence and urges practical giving while listing quirky scenarios and a call for fiscal support.
Harold Westwood, president of the Columbia Thomas-for-President Club, urged Barnard undergraduates to adopt the Socialist platform for unemployment security. He spoke of federal controlled insurance funded by income and inheritance taxes, a government unemployment exchange, social control of key industries, and wealth redistribution including a tax on incomes over 50 000 a year. He noted current wage levels and urged student volunteers for poll watching with an October 25 meeting.
The Lutheran Club at Barnard has held two meetings this term to unite Lutheran students. Officers elected include Eleanor Overbeck president Edith Schultz vice president Coretta Thielker secretary and Dorothy Falcino treasurer Olga Bendix named Publicity Chairman. A three member constitution committee will draft a charter after approval and teas with notable teachers are planned. Eleanor Maack named official historian inviting uninvolved Lutheran students to join.
Charles Engvall described peace caravaning as a method to spread international goodwill in a Social Science Forum talk held Tuesday in the Little Parlor. He recounted a summer caravan cruise with a friend and outlined how two-person teams travel to present peace messages training by Haverford Institute or Wellesley and featuring liberals like Norman Thomas.
Thomas Still leads in the bulletin canvass while supporters of Roosevelt cite tariff and character as reasons. Faculty member Raudenbush warns the country’s future deserves a better man than the three candidates in contention.
The caravaners advocate a new patriotism based on international cooperation and the League. They address Rotary clubs and reformatories, seek year-round discussion groups, set up library displays on international relations, and showcase cosmopolitan goods to illustrate global production links.
Wendell Phillips told the Wednesday chapel that faith in God sustains us and should guide the world. He cited chalked campus verses and a London editorial, saying church services now aim for spiritual growth as people seek the supernatural amid modern doubt.
Mr. Engvall notes the caravan groups had many participants and emphasizes that their achievements were concrete and well defined. The statement highlights distinct outcomes attributed to the caravans, underscoring measurable results.
